Question 2 In the fall, a community service club sold 10 shirts and 20 hats for a total of $490. In the spring, the club sold 20
shirts and 30 hats for a total of $860. Each shirt sold for the same price. Each hat sold for the same price. Write a system of equations that can be used to find the cost, in dollars, of one shirt (s) and one hat (h).
What is the total cost, in dollars, of one shirt and one hat?
To answer the question above, we let s be the cost of a shirt and h be the cost of each hat such that the equations that would best represent the given are: 10s + 20h = 490 20s + 30h = 860 The system of equations is the answer to the first question and the values of s and h are $25 and $12, respectively.
